July 25, 2014 (www.investorideas.com newswire) Recent security breaches at eBay and Target highlighted if not added value to the cybersecurity space; and venture capital firms have taken notice of budding opportunities in the wake. As investigations of these and other breaches took place, proactive cybersecurity companies sprang into action, creating awareness of their capabilities and expertise. Venture capitalists took notice and are expected to pump an estimated $788 million into early-stage cybersecurity startups this year.

The forecast comes from financial data provider PrivCo, who estimates that the funding will be spread among about 40 cybersecurity startups currently in their early stages of funding. If PrivCo has it correctly pegged, that's an increase of 74% compared to investments of $452 million in the same space last year. What's even more impressive is that venture capital firms pumped just $160 million in cybersecurity startups in 2011.

Why the focus on start-ups? Innovation.

Small companies have a knack for identifying gaps in cyberdefense and are more flexible in their ability to develop innovation and create tools to fill those gaps. Furthermore, the smaller, high-potential startups are able to quickly roll with new trends and needs such as security for mobile and cloud applications.

Take for example Ecrypt Technologies, an emerging provider of military-strength data security solutions for enterprise, government, and military. The company's flagship Ecrypt solution is an integrated email and encryption server that can be quickly deployed to strengthen the security of corporate communication, including attachments and mobile devices, against data breaches while eliminating phishing threats, malware infections, and spam.

Ecrypt's paradigm-shifting technology eliminates the need for separate encryption servers hitched to bloated administration and various points of weakness. On tap with the above-mentioned security breaches, Ecrypt is also leveraging its security consulting services to help companies of any size or scale reinvent their information systems to better safeguard against the substantial losses associated with security breaches and compromised data.

In the last two months, Ecrypt has demonstrated some serious synergy, flexing its muscles in announcing a host of new partnerships and marketing agreements that add value and strength to the company's position in the cybersecurity space. Keep flexing, Ecrypt – the venture capitalists are on the prowl.

Pan Global Corp., a renewable energy technology and sustainable infrastructure company based in the Carson City, Nevada, is set on breaking new ground. The company wants to build an all-encompassing green economy around the world. To advance this mission, Pan Global is involved in developing, building, owning, operating, supporting and investing in projects and technologies for environmentally-sustainable markets and sectors including:

Alternative energy (e.g. solar, hydro, wind and geothermal)

Energy efficiency

Water remediation and management

Sustainable agriculture and buildings

Pan Global's managers are especially focused on India. They see the promise in the country's green energy market and are intent on discovering and pursuing opportunities that will allow the company to enter this market. Pan Global's managers have been considering opportunities to develop electric power generation projects from alternative energy sources (solar, mini-hydro, geothermal and wind) and have steadily gained confidence in their plans because of a rising perception that India's new government is highly supportive of ramping up the country's renewable growth plans.

Lately, Pan Global has been in discussions with a key developer of geothermal power plants about a partnership and investment in India. The company recently provided an update on its plans for entering the geothermal energy production industry and confirmed that the talks are progressing positively and that both parties expect to yield a framework for joining forces on a project soon.

Geothermal energy is one of Pan Global's focus areas within the renewable energy sector and management is encouraged that its plans surrounding geothermal are moving forward. While the company has yet to enter into a binding agreement at this point, it will continue to evaluate the opportunity, conduct customary due diligence, and progress with negotiations.
